Dear Humans and Elves,

The time has come for a new guest race to join your cities in Elvenar : The Elementals!

The Elementals are a very old and mystical race that lives in another dimension. Their boisterous power of nature is bound into magic masks that enable them to take a stable shape. For instance, they can use the masks to appear in a humanoid shape to interact with other races (remember the Masquerade event?). Without their masks, they would not be much more than uncontrolled fire, water, air and earth, so the masks are quite vital to their cultural existence.

Unfortunately, they lack the precise knowledge how to build these masks on their own. That is why they lived in a kind of symbiosis with the Elvenar. The mighty, god-like Elvenar helped them to create the masks, and in turn the Elementals used their power to build up glorious cities and also legendary armies. No other race would dare to threaten the Elvenar when they are supported by such a powerful force.

Every few centuries, the Elementals have to revisit Elvenar to renew their masks - and their collaboration and friendship with the Elvenar. That is why they suddenly pop up in your town, expecting you to be the Ancient Elvenar. When they find out that you are indeed not the Elvenar, they start to worry a lot about their own future. They decide to build up a Settlement in your town to help you regain access to the knowledge of your ancestors - ultimately to help them to survive.

In the process, they teach you the basics of how to produce Sentient Goods, a technique that future Guest Races will further improve. The Elementals start with showing you how to produce Platinum, Moonstones and Elven Tree Gum using the Divine Seeds. This will enable you to progress through the Tech Tree and unlock improved versions not only of your own buildings, but also of the Settlement Buildings, which are unlocked level by level this time. Thus, as a player, you can watch step by step in the Settlement, how the instable Elementals of the beginning slowly regain control of their shape and build more and more stable structures and in the end proper buildings.

Can you save the Elementals before they cease to exist and turn into pure elements? And can you prove to be the true heir to the Elvenar?

Ancient wonders:
Of course, the Elementals come to your city with two new amazing Ancient Wonders to unlock by the end of this Chapter:

The Sunset Towers will grant you divine seeds with every opened Neighborly Help chest as well as a reduction of the divine seeds daily decay.

The Victory Springs will increase the strength of light melee units and increase the training ground's training speed too.

To sum it up: This Chapter will offer to you a new level of knowledge, bringing brand new types of goods as well as new gameplay mechanics. We hope you will enjoy and overcome this new challenge using the right strategy to help the astonishing Elementals! Of course we're looking forward to hearing your feedback in our Feedback Thread!

To help you get a little bit more familiar with the Sentient Goods, we'd like to share the next facts with you about them:

Sentient Goods are produced in your Manufactories from level 24 on. As for the other goods, each player will have a boost attributed to one specific type of Sentient Good.

Your boosted Sentient Good production will NOT match your regular goods boosted production.

The production options for Sentient Goods will replace some of the production options for the normal Good in that Manufactory. Therefore, you will still have access to 4 production options in your manufactories level 24 and above: the two shortest production cycles of classic goods, and two sentient goods production cycles.

The Sentient Goods unlocked with the Elementals chapter, are called "Moonstone", "Platinum" and "Elven Tree Gum".

The Sentient Goods are only shown after entering the Elementals chapter.

The Sentient Goods follow a daily decay (much like Mana does). This decay does not cause the goods to disappear completely, but they are turned back into their original base good. (E.g. Decayed Platinum turns back to Steel.) You won't get the involved divine seeds back though.

Sentient Goods can be traded with an extended amount of players via the Trader.

Elementals work on Mobile, but the trading of Sentient Goods doesn't work on mobile yet. We will implement it with the next Mobile app version!
